Join us for another in our series of Minnesota Book Award finalists readings when Marcie Rendon comes to ESFL for her nominated book Where They Last Saw Her.

As a follow up to her award-winning Cash Blackbear series comes a compelling novel of a Native American woman who learns of the disappearance of one of her own and decides enough is enough.

All they heard was her scream. Quill has lived on the Red Pine reservation in Minnesota her whole life. She knows what happens to women who look like her.  As Quill puts everything on the line to make a difference, the novel asks searing questions about bystander culture, the reverberations of even one act of crime, and the long-lasting trauma of being considered invisible.
